Zen gardens emphasize the principles of naturalness (Shizen), simplicity (Kanso), and austerity (Koko). To make a mini version you will decorate a small tin filled with sand and assemble a tiny rake. Choose a few small shells and rocks or include your own natural objects. For the mandalas, paint repetitive lines and shapes on a smooth stone. True mandalas incorporate ancient spiritual symbols, but our version will allow you to focus your attention on the pattern and process that will help guide you to a relaxed state of mind.
Open to all ages if accompanied by an adult.
